    One of the many signs in the Garden Walk parking garage to direct you to the shuttle and parks.
    The line for the shuttle bus (I opted to walk)
    The garden walk entrance (no line of cars now but when I went in we were backed up to the street and that was only 15 minutes ago or so)

    One of the new buildings from Harbor Blvd (these are the ones on the edge of the Cars Land site)

    The walls are down in this area of Tomorrowland though
    Looked like they were meeting about moving the carts back to the area

    Space Mountain Ghost Galaxy was open for business and the line was solid. I spoke to many who went on and they all really enjoyed it.
    Speakers are set up for the sound effects at night.
  • Page Number: 12
    A 60 minute wait and no Fastpasses
    Does anyone know, did they do any Fastpasses on Friday? I talked to some people that were there early and they said they were not distributing any near park opening and when I arrived in the early afternoon this sign was up.

    Notice the blue rollers, wonder why they are not black to blend in better?
    Looks like this area is going to stay open now that the new shack is open
  • Page Number: 18
    The shack is called Edelweiss Snacks
  • Page Number: 19
  • Page Number: 20
    The menu looks to be a combination of the ODV carts that were in the area. (Great to see!)

    The kids area
  • Page Number: 30
    Looks like a layer of something was put on the walkway, it was already showing some signs of wear, so its rather thin. Might be for traction when it gets wet?
  • Page Number: 31
    The Mansion is open with the Holiday makeover
  • Page Number: 32
    Noticed a new gate (well new to me) at the Toontown train station. It is now controlled by a switch so the CMs do not have to walk out to it and use the latch.
    Here is the control switch
    The snack shack at the theater is being completely rebuilt.
  • Page Number: 33
    Now over to DCA, no candy corn on the letters this year
    I noticed nothing too interesting in the area that was walled off. Must have been some paver work? Or maybe drainage?
    Candy Corn Acres is back again (wonder if this is the last year)

    Halloween popcorn
    No real visible progress on the swings
  • Page Number: 43
    The demo work next to the swings continues
    One of a handful of interesting cutouts in the platform. The Lazygeeks theory is these may be where the midst screen equipment will be.
    The wall is starting to be formed for the second tier

    This project seems to be moving at a snails pace
    The walkway is even narrower now
    The walls are still up near the parade gate
  • Page Number: 49
    Noticed a segment of the feed pipe was cut away, wonder if there was a problem (guessed they ma have pressure tested it once the valves were installed. Seems like this would not be by design.
    The walkway is only 3 or 4 people wide now.
  • Page Number: 50
    The Halloween cup
  • Page Number: 51
    The rocks at night
    Noticed the new trees in the viewing area are in the path one of the Fun Wheel spot lights (wonder if the lights will move to the Little Mermaid building once its built since they used to be on Golden Dreams)
  • Page Number: 52

    Noticed the phonograph was missing from the store sign
